BLUES GUITARIST/SAX PLAYER SEEKS BAND, JAMS, GIGS SYDNEY & SW.
EXPERIENCED BLUES GUITAR/SAX PLAYER
*SEEKS FILL-IN WORK,
*CASUAL GIGS,
*FULL TIME BAND,
*OR SIT INS WITH EXPERIENCED GIGGING BANDS.
MY APOLOGIES FOR A LONG POST. I DON'T LIKE TO WASTE PEOPLES TIME SO I TEND TO BE QUITE SPECIFIC ABOUT WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR.
35 years pro experience.
Based in SW Sydney but will travel for well organised jams, rehearsals and gigs.
I'm familiar with most styles of music but my focus is on Blues and blues related styles (Soul, Funk, Neo Soul etc). Texas, Jump/Jive, Chicago, Gospel, Jazz no problem.
*GUITAR
Strong lead and rhythm skills....quite happy to play rhythm and sax while your regular guitarist does his thing.
*SAX
Tenor and Alto......Blues, rock, funk, smooth jazz.
Experienced....Played in a bands on Sax only.
*MANDOLIN
Chords and Improv. Maybe useful if your band does a acoustic blues set.
*VOCALS
I sing about 20 easy blues standards that don't require chord charts. I sing in tune and in time...... but wouldn't regard myself as a bands main vocalist. I'd like to think that I can make a contribution to the nights vocal entertainment if need be however. All up tempo danceable tunes.
LOOKING FOR WORK, OR JAMS WITH EXPERIENCED PLAYERS WHO CAN USE MY EXPERIENCE TO THEIR BEST ADVANTAGE.
NORTHSIDE OF THE HARBOUR IS A BIT FAR FOR ME, AS IS THE CROSS.
But I'm open to be persuaded if the right ducks line up.
Can't travel however.....work for myself and "away gigs" cost me more than I earn. Anywhere else is ok.
BANDS ONLY PLEASE......OR BLUES DUOS/TRIOS
BLUES/JAZZ/NEO SOUL ACTS ONLY PLEASE.....
NOT INTERESTED IN BANDS THAT HAVE A STRONG CLASSIC ROCK/ALT/PUNK SETLIST.
I understand that a few crowd pleasers make good sense but I'm looking for a band that has a more blues based repertoire.
I know there is little money in the blues arena.....so this not about the money....more about playing creative enjoyable music with nice people.
Talk is cheap...please go to the Audition tracks folder on my RN page for audio and video samples.
